Meditation Mondays - Last Devotional this Year!!!

Good morning Everyone,

Welcome back to the last Meditation Monday of the year. As we all end out the old year and are getting ready for the new one, let's think back to the time we spent with the Lord.

Did you get to dwell in the Word of God over this last year??? Did God speak to you?? What are your plans for next year???

All these questions and my prayer is that you will be back with me again next year for another wonderful journey in God's Word.

I want to leave you with this very special song. Francesca Battistelli just released it on K-Love radio over the holiday. It is called Write Your Story. We need God to write His story for us on our hearts. He is the only one that knows what is in store for us this next year.

Please come back tomorrow for a special post for New Year's Eve.

Meditation Mondays - Mary's View

Welcome to Meditation Mondays. Today we are going to talk about the Christmas story from Mary's point of view. One of my favorite singers is Francesca Battistelli. She has written a song that I love!!

Here it is please enjoy!

Life, Even Crazier, Family, and Prayers

Well life hasn't exactly gone as I have planned the last couple weeks. I had planned to post on Mondays Devotionals but it hasn't happend.

Since I last posted so many things have happened. Friday, December 13th my whole life changed. Daddy had a heart attack. He had stints put in and was in the hospital for two days. I got to stay with my friends for the weekend. Dad is home now and doing better but it is going to be a long recovery process.

I am hoping to post more often but we will see what happens. Please pray for me. I am searching for guideance with how I will continue to post to my blog. Right now I have it set as private but thinking of changing it to public as I have many friends that don't have gmail.

Christmas is next week. What are you doing? What are you favorite traditions?

I have been working on a Christmas song and hope to finish it in time. If it is finished I will share it with you next week. I have been watching movies too. Check back on Christmas Eve for a couple reviews. They are great movies and a must see.

Well I better go but thank you to my faithful followers.

Shalom,

Hi Everyone,

As you can see I didn't post on Friday or yesterday. I haven't been feeling to well and been really busy. The RMSF is really cramping my life. We are seeing a doctor on Dec. 11th in Meyerstown, PA. Hopefully he will be able to help me. We don't know what he is going to do to treat me but it may be IV antibiotics. I guess we will have to wait and find out since my appointment is so close to Christmas.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I know I did. 

Thanksgiving Day we went to m Aunt Helen's house to spend time with her and her family. My little cousin Sammy and I made bracelets using the rainbow loom. (well she made them and I watched :)

We then came back to the Hanger and RV and watched movies until it was time for bed. I got some knitting done.

I have some beaded socks I am knitting for a lady who ordered them from me. They are going slow but I am hoping to have the first heel done today or tomorrow. 

Now that Dec. is here I can start to really get into the Christmas Spirit. Mom and I watched an AWESOME Christmas movie last night on Netflix. It was called Christmas with a Capital C. I highly recommend you watch it if you can. 

My friend Rebekah Morris has released a new book. It is called Triple Creek Ranch Book 1: Unbroken. It is a great story. I highly recommend all her books. You can check out her blog at: www.rsreadingroom.blogspot.com

Tomorrow, I am going to hang out with my friend Megan and her family. It should be fun. We my even do some filming for her Youtube Channel. You can check her out at: Modest Maniac username.

Thursday Dad has an appointment to get his stitches out of his head. He had to have surgery last week for basal cell cancer. It got an infection now so He is on antibiotics. If you think to please pray for him.

Friday Mom and I are working the Milkshake stand at the PA Christmas Show for the 4-H Fundraiser. It should be fun. We each get a free Milkshake. Afterwards we are going to go to the Christmas Show which has all kinds of food, arts and crafts, and shopping.

I have been writing some new songs and working on a Christmas one. I hope to finish it soon.

ANNOUNCEMENT: Starting Next Monday for our Meditation Mondays I will be telling the Christmas Story in a different way. I hope you will join me as we remember that Jesus is the Reason for this Season. I think this is going to be the best Christmas yet.

Well this is a longer post then I had intended on writing :-) So I will let you go.

Shalom,
Grace Mae
